Ilekokonit: One of the most common illnesses associated with public pools is diarrhea caused by a parasite called Cryptosporidium. Cryptosporidium is found in the intestinal tract of infected humans [/b]and animals and is transmitted through the ingestion of fecal matter. This becomes a problem when the fecal matter is in the form of watery diarrhea, which rapidly dissipates in a large pool of water and becomes virtually invisible, says Ashley Lamonte, MPH (Master of Public Health) with the CDC.

A pool may be contaminated, even without a "fecal accident:" [b]trace amounts of bacteria on a person's bottom can be washed into a pool.

E. coli is a bacteria that lives in the intestinal tract of healthy humans and animals; one strain of the bacteria, however, is particularly virulent and can cause extreme illness and even death. In 1998, a contaminated home pool caused an outbreak of E. coli that hospitalized eight people and one child died.

Just remember that not all adults or most children wash their back passage properly before jumping in the pool . Plus kids with diarrhoea will just let go in the pool and as I do not want to swallow fecal matter (chlorinated or not), count me out of swimming.

Orikinla: It is scary. And in Nigeria where many people are dirty is worse. The swimming pools are scary with people you don't know where they have been and then jumping into the pool with you. I am even afraid to sit on public seats and shaking hands after seeing that 95% of Nigerians don't wash their hands after using the toilet!

snthesis: me, i love farting in the pool
watching the bubbles rise to the surface and burst with a loud hiss is totally hilarious

pendo89: I swim in pools mostly private. And I am aware of what people do.
Its always advisable to take a shower before u jump into the pool and after you come out.
There's nothing wrong with a girl in her ps swimming if shes wearing a tampon.It doesn't leak and water doesnt go in.
The pools are disinfected for these very reasons described here.
I am very conscious about sharing public things so I know which pools to avoid.
Bottom line is,once am inside the pool I enjoy the water, no time to check out who's peeing or what cz I will shower once am out

berem: wetin 'concern' me with swimming pool when i get jacuzzi for house! mtscheeew!

naijasexy: Actually, a friend of mine was on her period (which is usually quite heavy) when we swum yesterday. She used tampons though, but i couldn't help but think I was ingesting a fellow female's menstrual blood once that water went down my gut. We were five who went and about all of us took in different quantities of water at some point, including the bleeding chic. It made me nervy but I tried to not think about it. Oh God!

MeGaStReEt: A friend banged his girl friend inside airport hotel swimming pool with lots of people inside the pool swimming and laughing. I pity for them. I don't swim, can't swim, if its not my private swimming pool, I no dey enter

naijasexy: For me who swum for about 5 hours yesterday and took in water about thrice, this is quite scary. Great information though. Thanks.
